Thristin Howl The 3rd ft. Prodigy - "Skillmatic" {Prod. By Will Tell}

Lo-Life General Thristin Howl The 3rd has dropped a new banger “Skillmatic” which features guest verse and chorus assist from Mobb Deep’s own Prodigy and a sinister beat courtesy of Will Tell (Jean Grae, PH, Brooklyn Academy).

Speaking on the link up with “Don P” Howl said “I met Prodigy at the Brooklyn Hip Hop Festival a few years back. We started the conversation about working on a track together. A few months later he was performing in Miami and I rolled to his show. After his set, we rolled to my studio and I played him the beat and we wrote and recorded it old school, right on the spot.”

This is the title track from Howl’s forthcoming full-length album Skillmatic, which will drop digitally on May 16th via his own Skillionaire Enterprises label. An east coast boom-bap affair of the highest order, the new album boasts several features from Master Fuol as well as such rhyme-vets as Prodigy (Mobb Deep), Sticky Fingaz (Onyx), U.G. (Cella Dwellas), Shabaam Sahdeeq, Meyhem Lauren, Spit Gemz, Rack Lo and more. Beats are also provided by Will Tell (Sadat X, R.A. The Rugged Man), U.G., Marc Spekts, Young Lo, W.A.T.E.R, Anger Bangers and Fes Uno.

Skillmatic will also be made available via a limited USB edition which will also include the entire Thirstin Howl The 3rd catalog (totaling over twenty nine different releases) plus other Skillionaire Enterprises releases from LoLifes, Master Fuol and The Alaskan Fishermen.

Aside from the forthcoming album, Thirstin Howl The 3rd is currently promoting his coffee table book, Bury Me With The Lo On, his coffee table book (co-authored by Tom Gould) which is going into its second printing.
